I'm going to assume that this is 99% official now seeing that is has its own page on the UKCA website, BTW I haven't got a facebook so it's difficult for me to keep up to date.

I have one question, are the dates certain yet or could they be changed?

Woah I swear I replied to this already... nkay mayb not.

The dates are confirmed by both the venue and the sponsor and the comp has been submitted to the WCA so the dates will not change.

Just as I thought. Compete dam you. You will not be the slowest person there. And also it just gives you a benchmark to get personal bests at future comps.

And also how noisy might it be? (aspergers)

Fairly noisy. This competition is held in a public shopping centre. If you are comfortable being in a shopping centre in normal circumstances then it shouldn't be much different.

(last question) Are there any rules for the cubes and do you have to bring your own to use in the compition?
